Whoops. Very nearly just terminated my RIPE membership because I'm very tired and the "terminate membership" button was exactly where I expected the "save" button to be at the bottom of a page while I was updating my address.
Or discover slight burn-in with a giant wrapped screen where I keep the same windows up most of the time. -.- Didn't think it was possible on these newer ones, but guess not. This thing does get fuggin' warm as hell.

This is a music box my late grandfather spent a lot of time working on. My dad worked on it most recently and it seems to play quite well, although I suspect...
It's Bandcamp Friday once again and I'd be remiss to not mention it! Please support independent artists like me today by buying our music on Bandcamp! We get 100% of the cut!
The dragons craned their necks down to look at the smallest dragon that had moved to the craggy peaks recently. It had wings, was jet black with sharp obsidian claws. It sat confidently on its equally small pile of shining treasures.
Though it met all the requirements, they needed to make sure it was actually a dragon.
"Answer us this; did you build your hoard yourself?"
"People should be able to have disagreements" is a key thing very, very sorely missing from much of the internet as a whole, and a great many friendships.
You will not ever see eye to eye 100% of the time and that's okay, but it should not also mean that we shrug off real harm and real damage from certain individuals, organisations or parts of communities either.
Itโs a human nuance so often misunderstood and misused.
Although seeing people like that makes me very aware that I don't really have opinions that would make me interesting to anyone, or the ability to articulate them properly if I did. Which is probably why I only really know people online and hardly ever meet anyone in RL. I really need to, though.

i feel like a lot of peoples complaints about the new firefox ui would be resolved if they just add a roundness slider and surface the proton theme to the people who updated

Happy International Raccoon Appreciation Day!! Every October 1st we celebrate these wonderful little creatures, and this year I wanted to commemorate the day with my own idea for a raccoon postage stamp!
Raccoons are my favorite species and mean a lot to me, so of course I couldn't let their day go by without painting one!
Appreciate your closest raccoon!!

So I'm out doing a little shopping and these two young guys walk up next to me and start having the most "Bro" conversation I've ever heard, but it was also one of the most wholesome things I've heard in a long while.
Just to paint the picture, one of the guys is holding a bouquet of flowers, and the other keeps holding out his phone with photos. Turns out the one guy is a little older and talking about his new baby, and the other is younger and the flowers are for his girlfriend, whom he's about to ask to marry him.
The whole thing was just stuff like "Bro I'm so happy for you!" "When things are going good for you, it makes me happy." "You're so lucky bro, you're awesome!" Like every other word was bro, but these guys were genuinely boosting one another, and that's just awesome.
Like how often does someone ever just tell you, "I love when you're doing awesome, it makes ME happy to see you do awesome!"
It was just really nice to hear in a world where it feels more and more like no one gives a shit about anyone else. :)

It was an episode of โFraggle Rockโ that made me an anarchist (in the classical sense) when I was a kid. There was an episode where the Fraggles meet another species of being that wants to know who their leader is, and Gobo, confused, explains they donโt have one. He says โwe each lead ourselves, and we all lead each otherโ. That line hit me so hard as an impressionable child.

The pot of tomato plants my aunt gave me is so lop-sided (all the stems are growing downwards over one side of the pot) that the rain last night caused the whole thing to capsize. It's now upright again (thankfully the soil was wet enough that it all stayed in place!) and the mass of stems is now being supported by a wire basket sitting on top of two spare food-waste bins. High-tech or what. I guess this is about normal for gardening.
Okay, I had to go and do mine too. So many games I haven't even recalled the names of in decades. They didn't have Tumble Bugs, aka Dung Beetles, in the database so I ended up with Mercenary instead which is honestly a better pick. There were so many possibles though, it's hard to pick just nine. I played a lot of Atari games until university, (and I remember I played a *lot* of Dungeon Master while I should have been revising for my GCSEs), after which I got the Free Software bug rather hard and mostly didn't play games, until finally Portal tempted me back to gaming and I created a Steam account just to get Portal on a free weekend. (To be honest, playing Portal after the last games I'd played having been Atari ST technology level was a bit of a shock to the system.) Then I got a bunch of game Humble bundles which to this day probably account for most of my Steam library, and more recently I've tended to get very few new games, I just keep playing the few sandbox games I have over and over.
@Matt Sqwrl @taco, bird/cat :verified420: Same! I'm sure I spent a lot of time wandering (and flying) around Targ, but it took me ages to (a) remember the game in the first place, and (b) find its name, before I could add it. So long ago.
My parents used to run a tiny printing business from home, and we still have quite a bit of spare SRA2 paper. I believe that's the size my dad's little offset printing press used to take. (Unless it was SRA3? Not sure.) Every so often I grab another handful and cut/trim it down to A4 so we don't have to buy more printer paper. :p
I do miss my dad's guillotine, though. That thing was a *proper* paper cutter: wind the guide stops to the correct size using the illuminated, magnified scale, put 1000 sheets in at once, align everything with the guide stops and crank down the gigantic clamp to hold the paper in place, close the safety guards, turn the key (yes, it had an actual key to prevent accidental use), push the two buttons, one on each side of the machine, simultaneously, and in a single movement it would slice through the equivalent of a phone book like it was hot butter. So nice.
Burbley and his little Chihuahua out for a walk. Whoโs actually walking who?
Drawing for Burbley the wah. When I saw him at ASC and hugged him, some moments later I noticed he was carrying with his dog on a small bag next to him.
If he looks like Koda the wah is not a coincidence: "I'm practically Koda with green eyes and blacktip tail"
